The member brought up how difficult it is to follow the Conservatives' logic regarding the firearms registry. The only explanation for this is their ideological position.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1725209\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I would like to hear some more about how he feels about the Conservatives' attitude. We agree on the principle of the bill; that goes without saying. The government knew and tolerated, for example, that a child soldier was tortured at Guantanamo. It also tolerates the torture that goes on in Afghanistan.</p>",

Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a soulev\u00e9 la difficult\u00e9 de suivre la logique de la position des conservateurs relativement au registre des armes \u00e0 feu. En m\u00eame temps, on ne peut l'expliquer que par une position id\u00e9ologique. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1725209\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je voudrais l'entendre aussi plus \u00e0 fond sur l'attitude des conservateurs. On est d'accord sur le principe du projet de loi, cela va de soi. Le gouvernement savait et a tol\u00e9r\u00e9 qu'il y ait, par exemple, de la torture sur un enfant soldat \u00e0 Guantanamo. Il tol\u00e8re aussi la torture qui a cours en Afghanistan. </p>"
